All to play for still in Democratic race

HILLARY CLINTON and Barack Obama split the Democratic Party delegates yesterday as John McCain declared himself the front-runner in the Republican race after the biggest Super Tuesday in history.

The former first lady won the big states of California and New York, but the Illinois senator, who would be America’s first black president, won more states overall.

The pair will split Tuesday’s delegates 582-562 to Ms Clinton, bringing her total to 845 to Mr Obama’s 765, by the latest count.
